Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Wireshark versions 0.99.6 through 1.0.5

Description The issue allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service, resulting in an application crash, through a crafted Tektronix K12 text capture file. This can be achieved with a file containing exactly one frame.

Recommendations For Wireshark versions 0.99.6 through 1.0.5, consider avoiding the use of Tektronix K12 text capture files until a fix is available. As a temporary workaround, restrict the opening of capture files from untrusted sources to minimize the risk of exploitation.
